Henry il. Hobbs OF Norway years
ago was a schooI teacher OF note. He
was very successful, and always pre-
ferred to be the master" in districts
where they were won't to have troub-
lie. His popularity arose as much
from his free use Of the rod as from
his knowledge OF the three Rs. He.
often alludes with pride to the fact
that he was never lugged out Of the
'schooihouse." On one occasion he
was kicked just as he was leaving the
house at noon by a scholar whom he
had punished. He cody said nothing,
but, getting his dinner he opened the
afternoon as if nothing had happened.
He saw several of the larger boys ex-
change significant glances, and he
at once ordered some half dozen OF
them on the floor. Thinking that
they all combined we're enough for
him, they obeYed. Now, says Hobbs,
Il do not know which one OF you
kicked me, but / shall be sure to get
the right one, for am going to lick
YOU all. shall begin at one end and
go all through the class. And he is a
mean, dirty fellow, who will see others
whipped for anything he alone is guilty
of. If there is any man to him he will
speak out. Step forward, STRIP This
was said to the boy nearest to him.
AS the rod descended the guilty one

II thought so,' was the reply. The
others took seats and the offender

to the bar-room for beer he never
drinks fewer than two glasses. These

Smith and Gladstone Discuss the Irish
Crimes Bill.

Grimes Bill.
LONDON, June 10th.-In the House of
Commons this evening Smith moved the
resolution previously announced request
ing that at 10 P NJ. on the 18th inst. the
Chairman forthwith put the question on
any motion, amendment or proposal touch
ing the clause of the crimes bill then I'M
der discussion, and then on the clause it.
self, and finally on each remaining clause.
He urged that this step was forced upon
the Government by the continued obstruc
ton. 1t was absolutely necessary for its
dignity and efficiency that further ATTEMPTS
to prevent the progress of business be de-
feated. In four months of the session prac-
tically nothing had been done. The whole
course of legislation had been stopped.
The Government desired that due consid-
Grafton be given the rights of the
minority and respect shown for the ira
ditions of liberty and freedom at
tached TO the institutions of the country.
LDerisive Parnellite laughter. But it was
undoubtedly the duty of the Government.
under circumstances without parallel in
the history of Parliament, to call upon the
House TO take measures to prevent the
minority from setting at defiance the con-
trolling power of the majority. 1t wac
impossible for the Government represent
ing the majority, to yield to distractions of
the minority. The Government must be
displaced by an adverse vote and then il
will be bound to appeal to the country but
while sustained by the majority of tbs
House they must carry on the business of
the country. The debates over the crimes
will become travesty, bringing ridicule
disgrace and contempt upon Parliament
He appealed to the House to support the
Government in trying to restore order in
its proceedings. [Cheers.l
Gladstone said that longer notice should
have been given of this important motion.
The present state of business and the entire
paralysis OF Parliament caused intense dis
satisfaction throughout the country. but
this situation had been brought about by
the Government themselves. r. Hear
hear " They had been pursuing false
and futile policy-coercion without iusti-
ication. They had disregarded all the
usages and traditions of Parliament in the
conduct of measure which they had. I'M
der the name ola crimes bill, introduced and
directed against a combination apart from
crime. [-Hearl hear ~ He would sug-
gest to the Government that rational
mode to expedite the bill would be to make
il temporary. instead of permanent, and to
strike out all provisions touching combina-
tioBs apart from crime, thus assuring the
Irish tenants of some protection. II the
Government rejected that remedy, and had
no other to propose, the offensive character
of the bill would be retained in full force.
He did not wish TO create difficulty by
offering opposition which he knew would
be Intellectual. He would therefore content
himself with protesting against the course
now proposed.

stockton independent
a committee of the Directors of the
State Fair have not shown that amount OF
strength they should have displayed in
their conference with the Mechanics Insti-
tute, of San Francisco, in relation to the
time of holding the fairs of the respective
associations. They have entered into
partial agreement to set the time for the
State Fair somewhat earlier than that orig
inally fixed upon: The Directors should
not ratify the agreement, for the reason
that it is unjust to themselves and the agri-
cultural districts, and is weak, not to say
childish. When the Sacramento papers
opened the opposition the Independent sup
ported them mostly heartily because they
were right, and on that ground alone, and
there should be no weakening now IN the
face of threats. The State and county fairs
are public institutions, supported by the
peoples money, and the Mechanics
Institute, which should be called the
speculators institute, is a private en-
terprise. The fairs are agricultural
in their characters, and the other is
more mercantile than anything else except
mercenary; the fairs are calculated and
designed to demonstrate the agricultural
resources of California and attract an in
crease of population, and the speculation
is designed to exhibit the merchandise of
can y TdDCiSCO anu Tue resources Oh lis IN
genuity at the expense of the rest of the
State, and attract a crowd to spend money
in the metropolitan hotels and retail stores
The fairs are largely for the exhibition of
fine stock and the speculation for the ex-
hibition of cool cheek; the fairs to build
up the country, and the speculation to fill
up its projectors pockets the fairs to pro-
mote the agricultural and industrial arts.
and the other to encourage money-getting
articles. In the fixing OF the time for the
local fairs, the law requires all the dis
trict and county fairs to give the
State Fair precedence and to avoid
holding competing fairs. This is for
the greater convenience of the farmer
and stock-raiser. In pursuance of this
circuit has been arranged, and until within
a short time there WAS no apparent inten-
ton to interfere. After great expense had
been incurred, the time fixed and exhibit
tors had arranged accordingly; after sew
eral county and district fairs had incurred
more expense based upon the fixing of
their time and after any change therein
must entail loss Of time, money, labor
and reduce success, the Mechanics Fair
selects a time that must needs interfere
with the State institution and several
others. Ii does more. 1t prepares. counter
attractions directly intended to win ex-
hihits away from the State Fair, and this,
tno, after tacit, If not explicje, agreement
that il should not be done. in view of the
bad faith, the eoyetous spirit shown, the
iomineerine demeanor of the speculation,
and the principle invo,. we'd, we trust the

Constsbles and Bailiffs Stood Off by En-
ragged Irish Tenants.
DUBLIN, June 10th.-The evietions at
Bodyke were resumed to-day, and there
was a repetition Of the exciting scenes
which have attended the numerous at
tempts TO evict tenants. The Sheriff and
his bodyguard were stubbornly resisted at
the house of a tenant named O'Hallorn.
The hillside near the house was covered
with an excited mob who cheered the de-
tenders of the premises, and urged them TO
hold out. O'Hallorn and his party had
dug trench around the house and barri-
caded the lower rooms, while the upper
portion OF the house was occupied bv
ten men, including two who had; re-
turned from America, and some women.
The bailiffs made an attack on the
wall of the house with crowbars, but were
received with scalding water and fled. The
Inspector of Police, with drawn sword
then mounted ladder placed against the
side of the house, but was beaten down.
A Constable with rifle and fixed bayonet
next mounted the ladder, but his head was
battered by the defenders. Several gashes
were inflicted upon him, and he retired
Another Constable also attempted to climb
the ladder, but failed. A second ladder
was then produced, and several Constables
mounted ii, but were beaten down. Cox
essayed to climb up a ladder to speak to
the inmates of the house, but the police
prevented him from doing So
Finally Constable entered with rifle
and fixed bayonet, but the rifle was wrested
from him and his safety was imperiled
when Father Harmon entered and com
manded cessation of hostilities The in
mates were then arrested, and the work of
eviction was carried out

demned the proceedings. The Stockton
Independent of yesterday voiced the
general sentiment when it said that 'this
is question of the people of the interior
against few, and the people should sup
port their own interests against the specu-
lators. The trial of conclusions must
come, and it may as well be now as ever.
If the officers yield to the spectators now,
they must continue to yield, and soon to
become completely subjugated. Let them

California has a coast nearly 700 miles
in length along the Pacific; climates al
most as numerous as her counties; soils as
varied as the Government sections are nu-
merous; scenery the most inviting noun
tains and valleys such as no other State
possesses; fields and vineyards, orchards
and gardens surpassed in no land ; re-
sources unequaled, and acreage inviting
six or seven millions of people to homes.
Every interest of country and city in such
a State demands that the tourists be led
into every section invited by all proper
devices to visit all quarters of the State !;
and the various county and district fairs,
with the State Fair, are such invitations
They must be maintained, and despite the
opposition of the private concern in San
Francisco, the strangers must be shown
that the people Of California are capable
of expositions Independent of the metrop-
oils.

CROPS IN YoLo.-The Woodland Democrat
says that the hay crop has been cut and is
about all safe in the stack, and while the
yield is not heavy the quality is excellent
- The reapers have just commenced head
ing the waving grain, and while no accu-
rate estimate can be made before it is in
the sack, it is reasonably certain that a
middling fair crop will be the result of this
years harvest. Had ii not been for the
three hot days over a week ago the grain
crop in Yolo would have been a fair aver
age, if not more. From the latest adyices
from all over the State the grain Weld in
Yolo will excel any other county in the
State in quantity and quality. In many of
the counties south of the bay the larger
portion which was intended for grain has
been cut for hay. The prospect for grapes
and fruit was never so good in Y olo county,
and as there will be many acres of fruit
trees and vines that will yield a good crop
this year that never produced before, a
bountiful crop of raisins and fruit is almost
a certainty
